This paper seeks to review the background of the land tenure and agrarian problems of Malabar. In Malabar three main classes connected with the land-the janmi, the kanakkaran and the actual cultivator sharing the produce on an agreed equation. The British rulers introduced certain innovations in the land administrative system which led to a rude shock in this customary order. British financial and economic policy was characterised by the largest share of production was set aside for the state. This resulted in a serious of rebellion in the 19th century.
